Inquiry Learning Spaces

Create Inquiry Learning Spaces and give your students the experience of doing science.

Inquiry Learning Spaces (ILSs) are personalized learning resources for students, including a lab, apps, and any other type of multimedia material. ILSs follow an inquiry cycle. Inquiry cycles can differ but the basic Go-Lab cycle consists of the phases Orientation, Conceptualisation, Investigation, Conclusion, and Discussion. The aim of an ILS is to provide students with an opportunity to conduct scientific experiments, being guided through the inquiry process and supported at each step.

This page presents ILSs created by teachers or the Go-Lab and/or Next-Lab team (and often in co-creation), on a large set of domains and in many languages. You can create ILSs starting from an online lab, but also copy and adapt an existing ILS with the help of the Go-Lab authoring platform. Visit the Support page where you will find demo-videos, tips & tricks, and user manuals, that explain how to work with the Go-Lab authoring platform and how to publish your own ILS once it is finished.

If you are looking for Inquiry Learning Spaces especially suitable for the curricula of Benin, Kenya or Nigeria, please visit our Collections page.

If you select ILSs in English, the descriptions on this website will still be displayed in English, except if the ILS author has provided the description in English. However, if you click on the preview button or copy an ILS to Graasp, the ILS will be displayed in English, as created by the ILS author.

The ILS is based on a topic covered at Form 4 (Grade 12) Kenyan curriculum. It gives a good chance for the learner to investigate and understand the relationship between the frequency of radiation in photoelectric effect and the corresponding stopping potential.

The ILS is based on a topic covered at Form 3 (Grade 11) Kenyan curriculum. It gives a good chance for the learner to investigate and understand the relationship between the angles of incidence and the corresponding angles of refraction as light moves from one medium to another.

ILS developed by Richard Njiiri for a topic covered at Form three (Grade 11) Kenyan curriculum. The lesson is to help recognize the basic relationship between current flowing through a conductor and the potential difference across it

This is a lesson on a topic covered at form 3 (Grade 11) Kenyan curriculum
Objective
Create a relationship between the amount of heating that occurs due to flow of current in an appliance, the amount of current and potential difference across it.

This is the third of three ILSs about light. In this ILS the HTML5 Phet lab “Bending light - Prisms” is used. The same female avatar as in the previous ILSs about the Colour of light and Refraction 1 guides the students during the ILS.
